The ever evolving technology of waterproofing presents challenges
and risks for architects and engineers who do not specialize in the
field. The revised edition of The Manual of Below-Grade
Waterproofing Systems provides the education and product
information to enable designers to take a sound, fundamental
approach to these contemporary challenges. Building designers
specify waterproofing systems and materials that are often based on
limited and subjective manufacturers' literature or past experience
with systems that work under specific conditions, but will fail in
other installations. Leakage usually leads to litigation. This book
gives you the tools to prevent that. This manual covers the history
and science of waterproofing materials, the considerable
distinctions between waterproofing roofs and plazas and below-grade
surfaces, the critical procedures for protecting waterproofing
materials during construction, diagnosing and remediating leaks,
writing specifications, and detailing waterproofing components. The
pros and cons of every waterproofing material and system are
comprehensively covered. You will learn how to: * weigh positive-
versus negative-side waterproofing systems * weigh dampproofing
versus waterproofing * coordinate with all the professionals in the
waterproofing delivery chain * follow environmental protection and
government regulations This book is an essential resource for
architects, civil engineers, contractors, designers, materials
manufacturers, and all other professionals involved with the design
and construction of underground spaces.
